December YOTA Month

[IK0ZCW]

During the whole month of December several country’s will become active with YOTA as suffix for call sign. The idea for this is to break the ice for some youngsters and take the microphone in the hand.
Our goal:
Every band / mode is allowed. This is NOT a contest but a shout to the world of ham radio. Try to get as much youngsters on the air in this month. In many country’s youngsters with no license can go on air as second operator. You hear them a lot on the bands so we want December to be a special month on the bands.
Look for calls with the suffix YOTA. Awards will be available as well. QSL and awards via Bjorn, ON9CFG.

After the success of the Youngsters On The Air events in the summer we decided that it’s time to do some more action!
During the whole month of December several countries will become active with YOTA as suffix in the callsign.
The idea for this is to break the ice for some youngsters and take the microphone in the hand. As seen over the years the YOTA-group is growing fast and every week more youngsters are asking to participate.
You want to hear us on the air? Listen for Youngsters On The Air callsigns in the whole month of December!
At least 17 stations from 14 countries with young HAM’s will be active. We would be happy if you try to work one or more of the following callsigns:

EA7URA/YOTA
EI0YOTA
ES5YOTA
ES9YOTA
LY5YOTA
OH2YOTA
OK2YOTA
OM9YOTA
OM13YOTA
ON4YOTA
PA6YOTA
S513YOTA
SN0YOTA
SH9YOTA
YO0YOTA
YL13YOTA
